Yeah anotherrrrr earthquake hit this region in this overnight cycles Fear and panic caused the most injuries in northwest Syria when two new earthquakes hit on Monday evening, just two weeks after the catastrophic 7.8 magnitude earthquake that devastated large parts of the region including southern Turkey. At least six people have been killed and hundreds wounded across both countries. Many were hurt because of stampedes, panicking and even jumping off buildings,” Oubadah Alwan, a spokesperson for the Syria Civil Defence, also known as the White Helmets, told Al Jazeera. The rescue group estimated more than 190 injuries in the opposition-held part of the country that is home to four million. “Civilians are mostly sleeping out and refusing to go back into their homes despite the cold,” Alwan said. “People are traumatised.” www.aljazeera.com/news/2023/2/21/panic-injures-many-as-traumatised-nw-syria-hit-by-new-earthquakes
